After a while, the shooting started.
Before the shooting, the director Johansson walked up to Veronica and said, "Both of you have experience in martial arts, so you don’t need a martial arts instructor. Just improvise. However, you must remember that you are a villain and must lose to Stephen."
They did the choreography yesterday, so Veronica knew how to be defeated.
Before the shooting, she thought it would be difficult and would need to be reshot at least two dozen times.
However, much to her surprise, she and Stephen had terrific chemistry as the scene went smoothly.
Veronica said her dialogues well. Soon, she was kicked by Stephen according to the script and fell from the second floor to her death.
The director repeatedly asked whether she needed a wire harness. However, she rejected them.
There is a cushion underneath, so it won't be dangerous.
In the end, the fight scene was completed in just one take.
"Cut!"
As the director called to stop, he stood up and applauded, and the others in the studio followed suit.
"Such fun! Professionals are built differently."
"So cool! That choreography is too cool!"
"That's right. I have a crush on her!"
"That's the real deal; it's so amazing!"
Veronica wore a tight leather jacket and pants paired with high heels. With her short chin-length hair and black fingerless gloves, she looked like a powerful woman.
The movie character had short chinlength hair, and Veronica's hair was a little longer than it, which was why she didn't bother to wear a wig. Instead, she just had simple makeup with flaming red lipstick, and it made her look utterly sensual.
In addition, with the blessing of her own abilities, she could easily pass the take for the fight scene with Stephen.
After the filming, Veronica got up from the ground when she heard the applause and reached out to wipe the blood on the corner of her mouth.
She had bit into a capsule to leak the fake blood from her mouth, in order to look like she had died.
She then jogged over to the director and asked, "Director, how was it? Is there something I should take note of?"
"Very well. You did well, so we don't have to retake." He patted Veronica's shoulder and gave her a thumbs up. "You are talented. I never thought that you were good at acting." "Hey, what do you mean she is good at acting? It's just beginner's luck." Larry came over to tease her, but he still praised, "It's all thanks to your chemistry with Stephen. In addition, you have only three lines, so it was alright, I guess."
After being praised by the Oscar-winning actor Larry, as well as Johansson, Veronica was surprised. "Really?”
She felt that it was unbelievable.
"Larry is right. We can use this take because of your martial arts skill and luck. But, of course, you have to thank Stephen for cooperating with you."
Johansson agreed with Larry.
"That's great!"
Veronica was ecstatic, and her heart was pounding with excitement.
Initially, she thought she would be scolded by Johansson and temporarily replaced by the former actress. However, everything turned out smoothly.
Stephen then came down from the second floor, and Veronica walked over to give him a big hug. "Thank you, Stephen."
The gentleman hugged her, and then they let go of each other. He smiled and said, "It’s so cool to act in a fight scene with you." He shrugged as he added, "If every actor in the fight scene knows how to fight, it would be easy for all."
As an experienced actor, Stephen had seen too many stars who couldn't do wire stunts for fight scenes, as it was too hard for them.
